Night Elves should not be able to instantly be out of combat when using their racial so they can instantly fly away when losing in world PvP, Racials are not supposed to give any race any advantages and the fact that NE Druids can run away from any situation out in the world is an advantage to where they never have to worry about dying by simply running away using this method.

lol Iâm aware of the skill, but:
1, it doesnât matter because they can instantly stealth>out of combat >fly before u can spectral sight > glaive throw
- thatâs beside the point, a racial should not have an advantage over other druid races who arenât NE

Itâs not the fact that they can shadowmeld + flight form away. Personally, I donât see that as a problem, itâs their racial. Itâs supposed to drop combat after all and hunters can do something similar, maybe not instant cast but during Halloween they can.
The problem is the fact that we canât net a druid if theyâre touching the ground in flight form or if they so happen to touch the ground while the net is already travelling to them. Druids canât be netted with Net-o-Matic, in a sense.
Itâs already been reported tons of times but Blizzard has made no attempt to fix it really.
Well, Zandalari Paladins have an advantage over other Paladin races who arenât Zandalari. They can bubble and use Regeneration to heal to full.

Has it ever worked on Druid? Their flying form isnât a mount and isnât treated as such. Unless it used to work, and now doesnât, Iâm inclined to believe this is a perk of a Druid.
Yes Druid flight form is instant, but u canât fly when you are in combat unless u kite long enough to get out of combat, but NE can literally use racial and fly instantly before u can blink while you are on top of them because it instantly gets them out of combat combined with their instant flight form = cheese
I understand that, but Iâm saying I donât believe there is anything to âfixâ. It would be a nerf.
Druids arenât mounts, their forms donât act like one in the code.
Yes itâs worked on Druids. It still does to a certain extent. They just canât be touching the ground when theyâre in flying form. The reason why is because back in Legion, they combined Flight Form, Aquatic Form, and Cheetah/Stag Form into one spell, Travel Form.
Itâs supposed to be a âsmartâ change, such as if they enter the water while in any of those forms, theyâll instantly turn to Aquatic, if theyâre in an area where they canât fly itâll turn to Cheetah/Stag, and so forth. If a druid is in the air in Flight Form, they can be netted. The reason it doesnât affect them when theyâre touching the ground is because Net-o-Matic is designed to only work on flying mounts, not ground mounts. When they touch the ground, theyâre suddenly registered in Stag/Cheetah Form, a ground mount, even if its not reflected as them morphing into it.
Sounds like easiest way then it to change the net to net ground and knock down flying.
I probably wouldnât mess with the Druid code.
I wouldnât mind this change honestly but thereâs a problem with this:
The way the spell is currently designed is bad. They need to split it back up into Aquatic, Flight, and Cheetah/Stag form instead of consolidating it into one.
Druids have complained about not being able to put cosmetic glyphs onto Aquatic Form or Cheetah/Stag because you can only apply one of those at a time onto this new âTravel Formâ.
Itâd be a nice change if it they did split it up again, so that they could have more cosmetic options to their forms.

I still much prefer to shadowmeld into gunshoes much more comical. Also sometimes shadowmeld drops combat and sometimes not. So then incarnation into stealth then gunshoes or flight.
I donât think itâs that unfair though. Iâve instantly been shot right back down with the net gun. Shapeshifting in mid air to avoid the net gun doesnât work either.
You canât net gun anyone touching the ground on a flying mount. I also know for a fact that if the net is launched and I touch the ground it still pulls me outta flight form. Just happened in Uldum.

Coming from someone that doesnât have a night elf, or a druid: itâs fine OP.

Uh, yes you can. You just cant net anyone on a ground mount. You can net anyone on a flying mount thatâs on the ground because its still considered a flying mount.
Depends how late you touch the ground. If its like, literally last second, itâll pull you out of flight form. If its just cast on you, or half way, and youâre touching the ground, itâll hit you but it wonât pull you out of flight form.
Iâve tried shooting someone on a flying mount and to interrupt cast he kept landing. Heâd fly up, iâd start the net cast, he lands half way through cast, net gun cast didnât complete if he was on the ground, but yeah if he landed too late into the cast time the net would still fire even though he was grounded dismounting him.

Itâs a little buggyâŚgo figure.
Couple of friends and I literally just tested this, doesnât work. The only scenario I find this to work in is in water.
You canât net someone whoâs in water even if theyâre on a flying mount. Similar to druids going on land, if you go into the water, itâll negate it.

Maybe on mounts that can do duel roles? Like my pally mount itâs both a ground and flying mount.
I tested that to see if that was the case but it isnât. Even tested it on my Paladin, doesnât work. Theyâll still get netted.

I donât know why people are saying they canât net Druids flight form or flying mounts in general on the ground. Because I can and do on a regular basis. The only time you canât is when a player doesnât have flying but is using a flying mount on the ground.
Anyway little tip, always try to get off a snare first before trying to net them down(Provided you have a snare you can use at range). It will prevent them from getting out of range and escaping.
The irony of a dh saying this is just so cute.
